Varicose veins are generally thought to affect more women than men.
According to the American Society for Vascular Surgery, 33% of women have varicose veins compared to 17% of men – nearly twice as many.
However, they are not exclusively a female problem and many male patients struggle just as much with varicose veins. In fact, the nature of male physiology is that the varicose veins can become quite prominent and noticeable.
At first, the concerns tend to be mainly aesthetic with the characteristic bumpy twisted veins looking unattractive and leaving patients unwilling to bare their legs. Yet if left untreated, varicose veins will get worse, so that patients experience achiness, heavy or tired sensations. They can then become very uncomfortable and the skin is affected too, with localised irritation and even ulcers developing.
While compressions stockings and putting your feet up might ease the discomfort, the best long term solution is to get rid of varicose veins. Cosmedics Skin Clinics offer a range of treatments at their London Vein Treatment Centres based in Harley Street and Putney .
Options include
- ClariVein® combining a mechanical and chemical action
- Exclusive tumescent foam sclerotherapy with EVLA which includes a laser treatment process
- EVLA laser varicose vein removal
- Varicose vein removal
- Foam sclerotherapy
- Varicose vein surgery
Before & After Treatment Results
These results were recently achieved for a male patient who was very keen to get rid of the varicose veins which spoiled the appearance of his legs and were increasingly causing discomfort too.
The results show the veins completely gone with no residual lumps and no obvious scarring either. An excellent result for the patient.
